MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist/archives/August 2016

Archiving
Per a discussion on the whitelist, I have set-up archiving here as well. Threads will be archived after 2 weeks. Both addition and removal sections will now go into one archive, by month, and will not be split anymore by 'discussion type'. Discussions however can still be found by the usual tracking methods.

I hope this will clear out this page a bit faster. --Dirk Beetstra T C 05:38, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

bmihealthcare.co.uk
This is the official website for BMI Healthcare, a major private hospital chain in the UK. I can't find any mention of this URL at MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist/log/Full list, and the only other references I can find are some plausible COI editing back in 2010, some refspam from 2015 dealt with via SPI, and a single possible COI edit from 2015.

The valid use as a source seems to me to outweigh the relatively limited spam.

—me_and 15:07, 26 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Edited the above to make clear it's the official website for the company that's been blacklisted. —me_and 12:40, 28 July 2016 (UTC)


 * I've now found the log entry, at MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist/log/2015 – it turns out the full list ends in December 2014 for no obvious reason. Anyway, it seems the pages were blacklisted because of the 2015 SPI I linked to above.
 * I really don't think this should have been blacklisted; some pages under this domain have definitely been used for refspam, but the domain as a whole is absolutely of use to the project. Indeed, the couple of bits of refspam I've looked at are to sources that would potentially be useful had they been placed more appropriately, e.g. information from a major healthcare provider about knee surgery.
 * Plus, the site was added to the blacklist on 22 July, at a time when there were valid links within the BMI Healthcare article to bmihealthcare.co.uk. That looks like a direct breach of point 6 in the lede of the admin instructions at Spam-blacklisting.
 * —me_and 17:24, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
 * (I've just added 2015 and 2016 to the full blacklisting log, which will hopefully prevent other people being tripped up in the same way I was.) —me_and 17:31, 2 August 2016 (UTC)


 * . Seen the size of the SPI that precipitated this blacklisting (which is not in the too far past), and seen there are only few different links that are of use, I am not sure whether this will have wide use on Wikipedia.  What is needed for BMI Healthcare can be solved with 2 whitelisted links, and a thirds one to me seems somewhat questionable in whether it is needed.   for those specific links on this domain.  --Dirk Beetstra T  C 08:03, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
 * You cite the size of the SPI as a reason for keeping this site on the blacklist, but I'm not sure how that's relevant: the SPI as a whole is massive, but there are only seven links to bmihealthcare.co.uk that were added by the socks, and all of that more than a year ago.
 * The requirements at the top of this page for adding to the blacklist are that the site does not have "any validity to the project"; that's clearly not the case here. It also requires that "all links [be] removed from articles and discussion pages before blacklisting", which did not happen – there are three articles with valid and appropriate links to this site: BMI Healthcare, General Healthcare Group and Adrian Newland. This site was evidently added to the blacklist without following the proper process.
 * —me_and 08:56, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
 * The links were added as one means of stopping/slowing down the disruption, and the additions by the sock were significantly less than a year ago. The disruption went on at least until a couple of months ago (obviously, this website could not be used anymore).  There are three places where overall roughly three links are being used while the 6 of the socks used it on 11 other places (for as far as I can detect), all of which are removed (legitimate use is not removed, that would be vandalism).
 * Seeing the amount of disruption (even if only looking at this one link; at least 6 socks, 11 edits) and the current small legitimate use I would really suggest that we whitelist the links that are now in use, and see whether there is a large influx of more whitelist requests. If that happens, we can revisit this one.  --Dirk Beetstra T  C 09:13, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

99Acres.com is an Indian real estate portal. (It appears to have some connection to job portal Naukri.com ‎and maybe education portal Shiksha.com, none of which are reliable, and are also worth keeping an eye on for spam). All or almost all edits by the above accounts have been inserting refs or straight links to 99acres.com at various Indian real estate and geography articles. Very little positive activity.

I've added a link to spam.99acres.com to all accounts I've identified, but there are surely ones that have been removed without warning or comment by others. I removed a bunch of links a while ago, but spamming continues at a steady pace, and I just removed several dozen more over the last couple of days. I have seen a couple of likely good-faith uses of this site, but only a couple. Grayfell (talk) 00:09, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Gethucinema.com
As of this report I see about 50 uses of this site in various Indian articles, but it's like every other cookie-cutter blog we see. User Gethuviki added it here. His name is very suspicious. IP 49.206.126.121 added it here (Geo: Hyderabad, India; ISP: Beam). User added it here. User added it here to an article that was, the next day, edited by Editor milton. Actually, as I look through Editor milton's edits, most of them involve Gethucinema.com in some way, so I'll be indeffing on that basis and reverting his edits. None of them achieve even the most basic of standards:
 * Gethu Cinema wrote, "This movie for the audiences who unaware of zombie." And rated 3 out of 5. Diff
 * Gethu Cinema stated, "This movie comes with new attempt in tamil cinema, can only enjoyable with friends." And rated 3 out of 5. Diff
 * Gethu Cinema stated, "This movie comes with a plot that entertains this trend youngsters." And rated 3.5 out of 5. Diff
 * Gethu Cinema stated, "This movie tries to convey a certain impression by the Director Ravi Arasu." And rated 3.25 out of 5. Diff

Looks like he's on autopilot here. Using a meaningless excerpt, an incomplete sentence rating, and then a link to the blog.

That should clear up the bulk of this problem, but we might keep blacklisting on the table, since the other accounts and IPs could be involved. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:25, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Blocks made pursuant to spam blacklist hits
While scrolling through the blocks log, I did notice that User:37.115.213.23 was blocked by for spamming but had no edits, edit filter hits or deleted contributions. Only after a while I did realize that it may be recorded in the spam blacklist log, and lo and behold there it was. Based on my initial confusion, I am wondering if blocks executed purely on the basis of that log may warrant a canned block reason, seeing as that log aside from being admin only is little known. Or maybe I am worrying too much. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 21:44, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Thinking also of 176.119.76.135. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 21:46, 17 August 2016 (UTC)


 * I block them continuously as they tend to make the spam-blackist-log useless (there is one with about >2000 hits to the blacklist ..). A specialised canned block-reason might be a good idea, I think that is a good plan.
 * I also left a note on User:Slakr's page, see whether Procseebot can take 'm out. Something along the lines of 'block the editor if they hit the spam-blacklist log more than xx times withing yy hours.  I'll also have a look whether the abusefilter can be an option (throttled system).  --Dirk Beetstra T  C 03:24, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Pretty sure that using a bot to block accounts hitting the spam blacklist will not be accepted - the list is not entirely free of false positives.

Advertisement-ridden site being constantly added to articles about Zika virus that is not reliable by any standard we have for reference or EL. Please add to the blacklist so we can stop removing it. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 02:42, 30 August 2016 (UTC)


 * It is just one page, but there is extensive serious editing by anons and new accounts, so page protection may not cut the deal. I am going to go by your evaluation 'not reliable by any standard we have for reference or EL', and hence conclude that this site has no use for Wikipedia.   to MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist. --Dirk Beetstra T  C 06:10, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
